csource:

Bugger off. This is a mailing list about birds, not computer
hardware.

af2 folks:

Your user csource posted the below message to a mailing list about
birds. It has absolutely no relevance to the mailing list. I suspect they
also used the tactic of subscribing to the list in order to post this
message which is *highly* unethical, and shows that they knew exactly what
thy were doing. I request that you take action against this user to
prevent this from happening again.
